ABOUT

Hackfort is about celebrating all things tech. It’s not your typical conference. We encourage conversation and engagement, and we love providing a platform for people that are doing interesting or unique things with technology. We love makers, developers, musicians, gamers, content creators, innovators, leaders, journalists, educators, and entertainers. Come celebrate with us!

TEAM

Sean Wakeley. Director of Hackfort

I love technology and what it can do for our world. Hackfort is the culmination of bringing my passion for people, community, creativity, and innovation all together to celebrate what’s next!
Come say hi to me and let’s discovery new ideas and possibilities together!
Also don’t forget to Rock Out!

Mike Taylor. Director of Communications and Marketing

I’m a technology and gaming addict who was terrible at math in school, so I found a different way to get involved – through words. Now I’m a professional communicator, charged with spreading my love of all things tech to the masses. I also play and record a little music sometimes.
